Grace Jones
Born in Spanish Town, Jamaica in 1948, Grace Jones brought her already legendary status as a model and disco singer to the screen with a specific, avant-garde authority. Conan the Destroyer (1984) cast her as the warrior Zula alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, and she countered James Bond in A View to a Kill (1985) as May Day. Vamp (1986) let her play a wordless, iconic vampire, and she reappeared decades later in Boom Boom Room (2017) among other art projects. Whenever she is on screen, she treats acting as another vector of performance art.
